For the first time, Samsung's updated Galaxy laptop lineup has a bigger size: the 16-inch Galaxy Book 3 Ultra. That means if you're considering buying it, you'll want to invest in a 16-inch laptop case. After all, the Galaxy Book 3 Ultra is a hefty device, measuring 16.5 mm in thickness and coming in at 3.9 pounds, so it'll be much easier to drop.
Standard 13-inch and 15-inch laptop cases obviously won't fit your new laptop snugly since the dimensions have the Galaxy Book 3 Ultra at 14 inches long, so we've done some digging and found nine of the best 16-inch laptop cases on the market. Regardless of your budget, these cases can help protect your new laptop from common damage and still leave room for other things like notebooks, documents, or accessories like cables. Some of our picks even offer padded carrying handles or shoulder straps, so you can keep your laptop separate from your suitcase or other gear when traveling.
